Were Sore Over Decision o! Umpire and Took the Part of Nine Blf Babies Unsports ' manlike Conduct. Oregon City, 19 (Schillers, 0. Of all th Sight that ever was seen yesterdays ball game at Canemah Park was the worst. For over two liouiB Oregon City batted the sphere Wherever they wanted it to go and only stopped scoring when their tired limbs gave way. Nineteen to 0 was the soore. It must not be nnderstood that the Sohillers could play no better ball than they did. The game started bravely with Sohillers to the bat and a large juicy goose-egg was their re ward. Along came Oregon City and scored three. During this inning the visitors became dissatisfied with the decisions of Umpire Fields and at tempted to jump the game. Manager Mott induced them to take all that was coming to them and the exhibi tion commenced. Schillers made no attempt to play basebalL Their field injt was fierce, what little there was of it. Letto pitched for the home team and had his own way. The spectators became wearied at the farce and many of them went home. The whole game was merely a dis play of soreness on the part of the Schillers. They acted in a very un sportsmanlike manner and did more in yesterday's game to in jure the park grounds that anything else this season. The attendance was fair. Schillers used four men in the box. In the first, third, sixth and seventh inings, there was nothing to it but fireworks, and the illumination was startling, Th snore bv innings was : Oreeon OitT. ...'.805008 7 1 0-19 Schillers 0 00000000-0 Chautauqua Baseball Will Be Interesting Feature of Assembly.

The report of the committee to confer with Judge T. F. Ryan in relation to his ordi nance carrying a franchise to con struct and operate , elevators and street railways made a report. The ordinance was read as amended and upon motion was referred back to the committee to confer with the city attorney and report at next meeting. The petition of John T. Wilson who asked to be allowed to auction oft the stock of the postoffice store on Satur day July 11, without being compelled to take out an auctioneer's license was refused. The quarterly report of City Treas urer F. J. Meyer was referred to the finance comimttee. City Engineer Rands reported that work had been done by the contractor of the sewer in district No. 8 to the amount of $4149.99. A warrant was ordered drawn for 75 per cent of the amount, $8111.90, in favor of E. W. Rlnor. Permission was granted to Henry Weinhard to construct a ctment walk 110 feet long and eight foot wide on the north side of his building on the corner of Main and Fighth streets. Councilman Koeruer asked to have tlie appropriation of $1000 for the South End Road paid to Charles Al bright, treasurer of the joint commit tees. Story was of the opinion that the ordinanoe appropriating the $1000 placed the money in the hands of the street committee to be expended and now that a speoial committee was in charge of the road, it would be nec essary to pass another ordinance to make the appropriation available. Mayor Dimick did not believe that a ordinance would be required. As he remembered the ordinance simply appropriated the money and a resolu tion afterwards placed the money in the street commi ewe's hands.

A large number of the Knights were present and an enjoyable time was had. State Commander Sherwood was present and made an interesting address and announced that he would place a deputy in this field for the purpose of increasing the mem bership of Tualatin Tent. Mayor G. B. Dimick also made a happy speech. Refreshments! were served. The fol lowing officers were installed : Jesse George, oommader; Robert Vaughn, lieutenant commander; Ed. E. Taylor, record keeper; Millard Hyatt, finance keeper ; M. L. Miller, chaplain; Dr. E. A. Sommer, physi cian ; D. H. Courtney, sergeant ; J. M. Turner, master at arms; Charles Catta, first master of guards; Sam Batdorf, second master of guards; Eli Deck, sentinel; J. O. Weston picket. was agreed that the money subscried by the citizens should be collected and expended before the appropriation by the counoil could be used. Koerner finally withdrew his motion and the council adjourned. Accident Narrowly Averted. The passenger car of the Oregon Water Power & Railway Company leaving Oregon City at four twenty o'clock Saturday afternoon ran into an open switch on the Gladstone trestle. The car bumped along the ties for twenty feet and came to a stop. It was crowded with passen gers for Portland. The trestle is be ing filled in but at the point where the accident oooured, the fill has not yet been made and the track is about twenty feet from the ground. Noth ing but slow speed prevented the car from leaving the trestle, which would certainly have caused a terrible ac cident ' Fire Alarm System. Chief of the Fire Department L. Ruoonich has a scheme to provide for a fire alarm system in Oregon City; At the present time there is no system in use and if there is a fire in one end of town, the blaze necessitates some one who is fleet of foot to go to the nearest bell tower and Jerk the rope, Ihis is slow and fire could gain im mense headway before the alarm could be turned in. Mr. Ruconich proposes to install about six boxes, three in the business district and three in the residence district. The estimated cost of the system is $1700. A.
